I love the way these boys work together. Serious problem-solving. Together they decide and continually run ideas past each other. They good manners and encourage each other.

I love the problem solving that is happening here. Not giving up, even though the glue stick was clearly not doing the job. Again, checking in with peers about ideas on how to improve the construction.

Discovering that the sand particles are attracted to magnets.
These boys were playing in the sandpit. They added the magnetic letters to play with and accidently found particles "magic sand" sticking to the magnets. Here they are collecting the metal particles from West Coast sand.

Trip
Today we had a lovely albeit cold and wet. We had great fun splashing in puddles too!! We got to experience some of the things we have been learning about our area. We saw Pukekohe from the top of the highest hill, Alexandra redoubt and the Waikato river. We had to return early but had delicious hot milo with marshmallows in the hall. Yummmm
